Re: OT: Is this normal?
Renegade, Bearclaw: Are you sure? This is surely a recipie for disaster. Two SEIV players under one roof? Prepare to drop out of University, and quit your job. It's all over. Game Over, man, GAME OVER! *end crazy mode*
See, now THIS is why I like these boards. Makes me wish I could meet more of the folks here. You know, outside. Or in a pub.
P.S. Wait, is bearclaw a beta tester? Let me reiterate the crazy talk from before, only replace the $GAME string with SEV, instead of SEIV. Or (even worse) SEIV and SEV.

Re: OT: Is this normal?
I will remind you of the cautionary tale of the bloke who died after too many hours straight gaming.
So we have no seal clubing OR tea drinking. I'm worried about Renegade, next he'll be saying he doesn't own a lumberjack shirt or doesn't secretly wish to be a Mountie!

Re: OT: Is this normal?
 Canadians don't drink tea!!! Coffee!
Oh, and the way to identify a Canadian (well, a Canadian other than those that live near the border...wusses  ). Ask them if they like cold weather. If they say yes, they're a Canadian (or a Russian, but the accent should give that away!). I love the cold and snow and everything to do with it. Winter makes me happy. I like the darkness it brings too

Re: OT: Is this normal?
Vancouver winters are OK. Sometimes I feel like it's dark all the time, though because when I go to work in the morning it's dark, and when I go home after work it's dark, and in between I'm indoors. Cold weather is OK ... up to a certain point. I don't want to go to Fort McMurray again in January!

Odd; I happen to like the cold, so should I apply for Canadian citizenship? Of course, I cannot say I have ever seen something looking like winter: the coldest it got here was a bit under -10 Celcius, only slightly below short-sleeves weather. |

Re: OT: Is this normal?
My best advice is to get out of the dorm environment if you don't like it. Where you live is very important, since you'll be spending much of your time there.

See now, I'd disagree there. You don't have to do anything more at a dorm besides sleep and store your clothes there. You can study in a library, work in the laboratory, exercise in a sports facility, meet people you like to talk to. Plenty of people work, or run home every free moment to be with family or significant other.
I was really worried about the dorm environment, so I lived off campus at first. I saved some money, but I missed out on a good source of information on what was going on. The burnouts hanging around the dorm may well turn out to be not a bad bunch of guys -- in small doses.

Re: OT: Is this normal?
Well, I never lived in a dorm during university. I lived at home and took the bus for an hour in the morning and an hour back each day. I remember feeling somewhat envious of the guys who lived in residence because they could just get out of bed half an hour before class and then walk to the classroom. They can go home and get things in between classes.
